Confirmed with Link: Anderson to Habs for Domi and a 3rd

[Prettyisland]

I don’t know what domi some of my fellow habs fans were watching this year...? I love the deal. 3rd shouldn’t have been added though

 

[Michoulicious]

WHY GIVE A PICK.

 

[Habs 4 Life]

Let's be honest here, as of right now, we are not a better hockey team
If Bergevin thinks this moves makes us better, it's a going to be another long season ahead!!

 

[Video Coach]

f*** mb!!!! Such a brutal f***ing trade!!!! Unless Domi was asking 6m+ this is an awful trade!!

He absolutely was. Dreger reported habs offered over $7m on a long term desk after 72 pt season and he turned it down.

 

[JAVO16]

Hate this trade. Anderson is a glorified third liner. See him get outproduced by Armia next year

 

[EXPOS123]

lol...once again spinning our wheels going nowhere...

 

[SpeedyPotato]

Uhhhh wut???? I usually think MB makes good trades, but to me, this is not a good trade, I don't get it, I thought we could've gotten Anderson for two 2nd, I'm not happy about this.

 

[Hacketts]

just here for the replies and meltdowns.

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Forget the third, why are we giving up Domi for Anderson? A guy who we know can play center, produce and has a far more proven background than Anderson. I'll readily admit that I'm not really familiar with Anderson, but I'd love someone to explain value wise how this trade is a good one.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

We gave a 4th line centre that pouted and did not give effort in the playoffs.....that’s another way to look at it

Domi iss not a4th center , not because he played 3 games on a 4th line means hes a 4th liner. What a dull and lame argument. Kid had 70 points 2 seasons ago and was headed to another 50 season points again.

 

[Redux91]

Bidding war for Anderson, had to add the pick to close it out.

Drouin - Suzy - Anderson

Let's do it

Big winger, and with my own eyes ive seen he can deliver *when healthy* , what i saw from domi in the playoffs i cant believe we would of gotten anything at all, he literally quit on us, it was disgusting and im glad hes gone.

 

[The Great Weal]

Anderson is better than Armia, but the difference between the 2 isnt Domi.

 

[Video Coach]

I like a healthy Anderson. But is he healthy?

I would think they would have dig deep to make sure he was. I would expect a long term deal to be announced shortly. Same agent for Domi and Anderson. Bet they both get deals this week. Otherwise why do it?

Well if Anderson returns to being a 25+ goal scoring RW with size I actually think the team got better. But that is a Risky gamble. I don't like this trade Blue Jackets should of been the ones adding

 

[JackZap]

Surprised they didn't throw in Suzuki in the deal

 

[Captain Mountain]

Not a fan TBH. Not the worst, but Its yet another Bergevin trade where he takes on more risk for little reward.

Bergevin is also mostly done for the offseason besides some minor signings in Free Agency.

I like it.

Anderson has been a monster in the playoffs against the Leafs, Boston and Tampa Bay previously.

Let’s go

When has Anderson ever played the Leafs in the playoffs?

 

[NORiculous]

Anderson is a good addition but what a bad trade this is.

Sorry play-in. This year

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

We gave a 4th line centre that pouted and did not give effort in the playoffs.....that’s another way to look at it

And we got an injury prone player who scored 4 points in 26 games... Even if you really want to look it that way, it's still bad for us.

 

[Luigi Habs]

We traded a 70pts player for a 4pts player. And we ADDED a 3rd round pick.

You can't make this shit up.

 

[Zorba]

It will all depend if this is the only deal the hans make. If it is, then it’s not a good trade

 

[McGees]

LOL at people on twitter (and here) freaking out about the trade. If Anderson is healthy he will be your favorite player next year lol.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Risky gamble
It worked out with Galchenyuk - Domi, so we'll see how it goes for Domi - Anderson

 

[le_sean]

The price for power forwards is absurd. Also goes to show you what everyone around the league thinks of Domi.

 

[The Great Weal]

Instead of adding a top 6 forward, we removed one
